Monitors in Italy were the initially detected the radioactive isotope ruthenium-106 on Oct. 3, according to a new report released on Thursday from France's Radioprotection and Nuclear Safety Institute (IRSN).

The report said that 28 European countries saw the radioactive cloud, with the multinational Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization, who run a network that is designed to monitor for nuclear weapons tests confirmed that they also detected the cloud.

The monitoring stations and meteorological data traced the cloud back to near the Russia-Kazakhstan border, according to Jean-Christophe Gariel, director for health at the IRSN.

"It's somewhere in South Russia," he says, likely between the Volga River and the Ural Mountains.

Germany’s Federal Office for Radiation Protection said last week that elevated levels of Ruthenium were reported in Germany, Italy, Austria, Switzerland, and France since Sept. 29, but that the amount was small and posed no threat to public health.

Gariel confirmed that to say, "It's a very low level of radioactivity and it poses no problems for health and the environment in Europe."

Russia's state-controlled Rosatom corporation said that the cloud did not come from its facilities, “The claim that the contamination had a Russian origin is unfounded."

However, modeling said that anyone within a few kilometers of the release would have needed to seek shelter to help protect themselves from possible radiation exposure,"If it would have happened in France, we would have taken measures to protect the population within a radius of a few kilometers," Gariel says.

Gariel also said French authorities would be continually checking agricultural products from the region to check for any contamination of food products.

Ruthenium-106 is a radioactive isotope that is not found in nature.

"It's an unusual isotope," says Anders Ringbom, the research director of the Swedish Defence Research Agency, which runs radioactive monitoring for that nation. "I don't think we have seen it since the Chernobyl accident."

The IRSN analysis says that the ruthenium did not come from a nuclear reactor accident, but was likely from chemical reprocessing of old nuclear fuel or the production of isotopes used in medicine.

Gariel said that based on the size of the release it must have been accidental, "It's not an authorized release, we are sure about that."

Several Russian nuclear facilities are located in the region where the ruthenium originated including a large nuclear reprocessing plant known as the Mayak Production Association.

The Mayak plant previously turned used nuclear fuel into material for nuclear weapons during the Cold War and was the site of numerous accidents, including a 1957 explosion that rivaled the nuclear meltdowns at Fukushima and Chernobyl.

Gariel said that even though Mayak is likely the source of the cloud, there is not enough data to conclusively link it to the release of radioactive material.

Gariel also said that after speaking with Russian safety officials this week, they did not dispute his analysis but said they were unaware of any incidents in the region in the past several months.

Russia Confirms Toxic Cloud, Source Still Remains A Mystery

Russia Confirms Toxic Cloud, Source Still Remains A Mystery

One month after a mysterious radiation cloud was observed over Europe, whose source remained unknown last week speculation emerged that it may have been the result of a \"nuclear accident\" in Russia or Kazakhstan, on Tuesday Russian authorities on Tuesday confirmed the previous reports of a spike in radioactivity in the air over the Ural Mountains. In a statement, the Russian Meteorological Service said that it recorded the release of Ruthenium-106 in the southern Urals in late September and classified it as \"extremely high contamination.\"
Earlier this month, France\'s nuclear safety agency earlier this month said that it recorded a spike in radioactivity, and said that \"the most plausible zone of release\" of this radioactive material \"lies between the Volga and the Urals\" from a suspected accident involving nuclear fuel or the production of radioactive material. The agency noted, however, that it is impossible to determine the exact point of release given the available data. Luckily, it said the release of the isotope Ruthenium-106 posed no health or environmental risks to European countries.

What Really Happened? Accident Sent Radioactive Cloud Over Europe

A cloud of radioactive pollution over Europe in recent weeks indicates that an accident happened in a nuclear facility in Russia or Kazakhstan in the last week of September, the French nuclear safety institute IRSN has said.
The IRSN on Thursday ruled out an accident in a nuclear reactor, saying it was likely to be in a nuclear fuel treatment site or centre for radioactive medicine. There has been no impact on human health or the environment in Europe, it said.

Russia Says Radioactivity 1,000-Times Normal Level In Ural Mountains

On Tuesday, Russia’s meteorological service said it had measured pollution of a radioactive isotope at nearly 1,000 times normal levels in the Ural mountains. It is the first official Russian data supporting reports that a nuclear incident had taken place.
The data appears to back up a report by the French nuclear safety institute IRSN. That agency said that in the last week of September, a cloud of radioactive pollution over Europe had indicated some kind of leak had taken place at a nuclear facility. The facility was assumed to have been either in Russia or Kazakhstan.
Neither Russia nor Kazakhstan has acknowledged any accident.

Radiation Leak: Russia admits to leak of radioactive isotope

Radiation Leak: Russia admits to leak of radioactive isotope

After weeks of denying its existence, the Russian government this week acknowledged a strange surge of radiation that billowed over Europe in September. The cloud emerged as a result of an accidental radiation leak and has been surrounded by mystery since it first became visible. This leak is not thought to be harmful, but as Simon McGregor-Wood reports, Russia has a checkered history when it comes to nuclear pollution.

Russia 🇷🇺 Kazakhstan 🇰🇿 NUCLEAR accident sends RADIOACTIVE CLOUD over Europe
A cloud of radioactive pollution over Europe in recent weeks indicates that an accident happened in a nuclear facility in Russia or Kazakhstan in the last week of September, French nuclear safety institute IRSN has said.
The IRSN on Thursday ruled out an accident in a nuclear reactor, saying it was likely to be in a nuclear fuel treatment site or centre for radioactive medicine. There has been no impact on human health or the environment in Europe, the IRSN said.
IRSN, the technical arm of French nuclear regulator ASN, said in a statement it could not pinpoint the location of the release of radioactive material but that based on weather patterns, the most plausible zone lay south of the Ural mountains, between the Urals and the Volga river.
Fukushima residents win 500m yen payout over nuclear disaster
This could indicate Russia or possibly Kazakhstan, an IRSN official said.
“Russian authorities have said they are not aware of an accident on their territory,” IRSN director Jean-Marc Peres told Reuters. He added that the institute had not yet been in contact with Kazakh authorities.
A spokeswoman for the Russian emergencies ministry said she could not immediately comment. It was not immediately possible to reach authorities in Kazakhstan or the Kazakh embassy in Moscow.
Peres said that in recent weeks IRSN and several other nuclear safety institutes in Europe had measured high levels of ruthenium 106, a radioactive nuclide that is the product of splitting atoms in a nuclear reactor and does n...
